Jonah thought the town’s worst was gossip and old grudges. He did not expect a thing made at a shuttered 1990s lab — braided wire braided with tissue, warm as a hand — to surface among children’s rituals and teach them a cruel economy of care. The Hollowed Tether is a visceral, atmospheric novel of small-town dread where scientific curiosity becomes a predator and childhood bargains with blood and meaning.
